They destroyed our air force. 500 planes
pulverised before they could take off.

I heard it before they bombed the radio station.

6
00:01:33,962 --> 00:01:37,799
I'm taking Wislawa to Wadowice
and then I'll join the army.

7
00:01:38,008 --> 00:01:40,301
Wislawa, you're Jewish.

8
00:01:40,510 --> 00:01:42,804
Jews should leave Poland if they can.

9
00:01:43,013 --> 00:01:48,059
Wadowice is a small, quiet town.
Jews won't be in any danger there.

Tomasz, will you look after my father?
I want to join the army, too.

11

Of course. I'll take him to the rectory with me.

12

You always told me
you could never be a soldier.

13
00:02:01,865 --> 00:02:05,368
I never imagined anything like this.

What are you going to do, Wiktor?

15
00:02:07,912 --> 00:02:12,459
All the last-year medical students
have been asked to go to the hospital.

17
00:02:17,339 --> 00:02:20,133
If the world gets taken over by evil men,

18
00:02:20,342 --> 00:02:24,596
we won't have any voice left or tears to shed.

19

- We have valuable books there.

29

in case they bomb us.

were killing people and smashing things.

- My older brother.
- Is he dead?

148
00:15:20,163 --> 00:15:24,918
He was a doctor. He died of a disease
he was treating in a hospital.

- Yes.

- As long as you want.

- Yes, until you're a grown-up.

00:19:50,767 --> 00:19:53,812
"[Hania] Karol, I don't know where you are".

172
00:19:54,020 --> 00:19:57,774
{y:i}Whether you have enrolled
{y:i}or have reached the Free Poland area,

173
00:19:57,982 --> 00:20:00,652
"or if you are still alive".

174
00:20:00,860 --> 00:20:05,740
{y:i}Wadowice, our dear Wadowice,
"no longer exists".

175
00:20:05,949 --> 00:20:09,160
"It's transfigured overnight".

176
00:20:09,369 --> 00:20:11,496
"Continuous rounding up of people".

177
00:20:11,705 --> 00:20:15,166
"Tomasz was right".
"The Jews are in terrible danger".

178
00:20:15,375 --> 00:20:17,794
"There is talk of closing them up in ghettos".

179
00:20:18,003 --> 00:20:21,715
{y:i}The Gestapo has occupied the Kluger
"residence, throwing the women out".

180
00:20:21,923 --> 00:20:24,092
"I somehow helped to hide them".

181
00:20:24,300 --> 00:20:27,387
Hania! I know where you're going.

182
00:20:27,595 --> 00:20:30,682
I want to see Tesia. Take me with you.

183
00:20:31,725 --> 00:20:33,727
Come on.

184
00:21:22,942 --> 00:21:25,737
- Hania!
- I have a surprise for you.

185
00:21:27,614 --> 00:21:29,657
Tadek!

186
00:21:31,743 --> 00:21:35,080
You shouldn't have come.
You know what they do to Poles who...

187
00:21:35,288 --> 00:21:38,208
Shh. I can't live without you.

188
00:21:42,587 --> 00:21:44,631
Tesia, look!

189
00:21:44,839 --> 00:21:46,883
It's hauka!

190
00:21:49,010 --> 00:21:52,055
You are a good person, a good person.

191
00:21:53,973 --> 00:21:56,017
Grandma!

192
00:21:57,477 --> 00:21:59,521
Grandma!

193
00:22:06,277 --> 00:22:07,696
Smell it.

194
00:22:10,532 --> 00:22:13,326
[Sighs]

195
00:22:16,496 --> 00:22:18,748
Tesia made me a present.

196
00:22:20,083 --> 00:22:22,127
Let me show you.

197
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:32,637
[Hums wistful melody]

198
00:22:49,654 --> 00:22:53,867
Mrs Rozalia, I would like
to take Tesia out of here.

199
00:22:54,075 --> 00:22:56,244
I will hide her at my parents' house.

200
00:22:56,453 --> 00:22:59,122
You have to go with him.

201
00:23:00,623 --> 00:23:03,918
I love you, but I can't leave
my mother and my grandmother.

202
00:23:04,127 --> 00:23:06,171
- Tesia, please.
- No.

203
00:23:06,379 --> 00:23:10,133
We'll leave this place together
when all of this is over.

204
00:23:10,342 --> 00:23:13,762
{y:i}[Hania] Were it not
{y:i}for our unfortunate friends, Karol,

205
00:23:13,970 --> 00:23:17,807
{y:i}I'd leave immediately
"and find you wherever you might be".

206
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,711
- There. We made it, Dad.
- Yeah.

207
00:23:47,796 --> 00:23:50,173
Look. We're almost there.

208
00:23:51,257 --> 00:23:54,552
[Father] Our best divisions
are on the other side of the river.

209
00:23:54,761 --> 00:23:58,139
That's where our liberation will come from.

210
00:24:10,443 --> 00:24:12,987
Stay where you are! Go back! Go back!

211
00:24:13,196 --> 00:24:16,032
The Russians have invaded our border.

212
00:24:16,241 --> 00:24:18,910
Hitler and Stalin made a pact.

213
00:24:20,203 --> 00:24:21,955
The Red Army has betrayed us.

214
00:24:22,163 --> 00:24:23,832
They don't take prisoners.

215
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,459
Go back! Go back!

216
00:24:40,598 --> 00:24:42,517
Dad, come on.

217
00:24:43,351 --> 00:24:45,854
- Come on, Dad.
- Leave me here.

218
00:24:46,062 --> 00:24:47,689
Dad, we have to go now.

219
00:24:47,897 --> 00:24:50,734
Go away to Kraków. Go on, go.

220
00:24:53,361 --> 00:24:56,823
I told you to leave me here.

221
00:24:57,032 --> 00:24:59,492
- That's enough.
- Stop it, Dad.

222
00:24:59,701 --> 00:25:02,120
Save yourself. Go on!

223
00:25:02,328 --> 00:25:04,664
Get out of here!

224
00:25:05,749 --> 00:25:07,792
Dad! Stop it!

225
00:25:08,001 --> 00:25:10,754
Just let them kill me.

226
00:25:11,921 --> 00:25:14,090
- Dad...
- That's all...

227
00:25:14,299 --> 00:25:16,968
- Dad, stop it...
- That's all... That's all...

228
00:25:17,177 --> 00:25:18,511
Stop it!

229
00:25:20,638 --> 00:25:21,848
Take hold, Dad.

230
00:25:22,057 --> 00:25:25,560
Mama wouldn't like to see you like this.
Come on.

231
00:25:25,769 --> 00:25:26,770
Come on.

232
00:26:31,167 --> 00:26:34,421
You're back! What happened?

233
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,300
Mrs Antol,
could you please come and help me?

234
00:26:57,027 --> 00:26:59,362
I'm going to get Dr "Z"weig.

235
00:27:01,990 --> 00:27:03,199
Mr Wojty³a?

236
00:27:32,020 --> 00:27:34,481
- Have you seen Wiktor Milosz?
- No.

237
00:27:34,689 --> 00:27:37,567
- What's happening here?
- Wojcik wants us in assembly.

238
00:27:43,823 --> 00:27:45,325
Krystyna!

239
00:27:46,076 --> 00:27:49,079
- Thank God the university is open again.
- What happened to you?

240
00:27:49,287 --> 00:27:53,041
I'm looking for Wiktor.
My dad is sick and Dr "Z"weig wasn't in.

241
00:27:53,249 --> 00:27:56,836
The Nazis took him. And some stinking Poles
have moved into his apartment.

242
00:27:57,045 --> 00:28:00,256
- Right.
- Wiktor is working at the hospital. I'll take you.

243
00:28:00,465 --> 00:28:01,925
- All right.
- Karol.

244
00:28:02,133 --> 00:28:06,304
They're organising an underground army.
We all ought to join up.

245
00:28:06,513 --> 00:28:09,015
Watch what you say.
There are spies among us.

246
00:28:09,224 --> 00:28:12,185
Spies? I can't believe anyone could do that.

247
00:28:12,394 --> 00:28:17,357
Here we are in the very cradle of our history,
our common roots, our language.

248
00:28:17,565 --> 00:28:21,361
- Nobody betrays his own mother.
- [Wojcik] Who is betraying his mother?

249
00:28:21,569 --> 00:28:26,199
Oh, Professor...
I was talking about our mother tongue.

250
00:28:26,408 --> 00:28:28,952
You pay for freedom with your whole being.

251
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,955
That is why you will call freedom that which,

252
00:28:32,163 --> 00:28:38,211
while paying for it, helps you
to know and control yourself over and over.

253
00:28:38,420 --> 00:28:41,673
You wrote that, didn't you, Karol?

254
00:28:41,881 --> 00:28:46,094
Yes. I am embarrassed
and honoured that you remember it.

255
00:28:46,302 --> 00:28:48,638
Wojty³a is right.

256
00:28:48,847 --> 00:28:52,934
We will pay for freedom with tears and blood.

257
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,021
The Reich Governor, Hans Frank,
has moved into Wawel,

258
00:28:56,229 --> 00:29:00,275
former residence of the Piast, the Jagiellon.

259
00:29:01,651 --> 00:29:03,903
This Nazi intellectual has declared

260
00:29:04,112 --> 00:29:06,990
Poland has a king
and the Poles are his slaves

261
00:29:07,198 --> 00:29:10,785
with no rights and only one duty, to obey.

262
00:29:12,245 --> 00:29:15,790
You have to resist
in whatever way you deem right.

263
00:29:15,999 --> 00:29:20,462
Talk it over among yourselves.
Decide according to your conscience.

264
00:29:20,670 --> 00:29:22,547
But we have to resist!

265
00:29:22,756 --> 00:29:27,260
- Long live freedom!
- [All] Long live freedom!

266
00:29:27,469 --> 00:29:28,928
Long live Poland!

267
00:29:29,137 --> 00:29:30,972
Long live Poland!

268
00:29:31,181 --> 00:29:34,976
Long live Poland! Long live Poland!

269
00:29:35,185 --> 00:29:37,270
Long live Poland!

270
00:29:39,689 --> 00:29:43,318
Three more shots like this, Mr Wojty³a,
and you can play soccer again.

271
00:29:43,526 --> 00:29:44,944
I have never played soccer.

272
00:29:45,153 --> 00:29:48,656
I don't believe you.
You've missed out on life's greatest pleasure.

273
00:29:48,865 --> 00:29:51,951
Get better first and then you can find out.

274
00:29:52,911 --> 00:29:54,746
Well said, Mrs Antol.

275
00:29:54,954 --> 00:29:58,541
It's almost impossible to find quinine sulphate,

276
00:29:58,750 --> 00:30:02,170
but for Wiktor Milosz nothing is impossible.

277
00:30:02,379 --> 00:30:06,132
Give him a tablet three times a day
until the fever goes down.

278
00:30:06,341 --> 00:30:07,884
I'll come back tomorrow.

279
00:30:09,219 --> 00:30:12,722
- How much do I owe you?
- That's OK.

280
00:30:12,931 --> 00:30:15,100
I'll charge you a fortune once I'm famous.

281
00:30:15,308 --> 00:30:18,770
You take care, now, Mr Wojty³a.

282
00:30:21,022 --> 00:30:23,066
Goodbye.

283
00:30:43,753 --> 00:30:47,590
{y:i}[Karol] Hania, dear, I'm so anxious
"to have news from you and Wadowice".

284
00:30:47,799 --> 00:30:50,051
"I read and write all day long".

285
00:30:50,260 --> 00:30:53,096
{y:i}My father is better,
"but we are short of money".

286
00:30:53,304 --> 00:30:57,017
"I seldom see Tomasz".
"He's with those who have lost all".

287
00:30:57,225 --> 00:31:00,645
{y:i}Kraków cries
"with the tears of orphans and widows".

288
00:31:00,854 --> 00:31:03,523
"A silent, suffering city".

289
00:31:03,732 --> 00:31:05,608
I'm so scared.

290
00:31:05,817 --> 00:31:08,820
{y:i}When possible,
{y:i}we attend Professor Wojcik's lessons

291
00:31:09,029 --> 00:31:12,073
{y:i}and hope to find out
"what's happening in Europe".

292
00:31:14,117 --> 00:31:15,952
{y:i}The German Governor, Hans Frank,

293
00:31:16,161 --> 00:31:19,539
{y:i}called the entire faculty
"to discuss their programmes".

294
00:31:19,748 --> 00:31:23,877
{y:i}The university was closed to the students,
"but Wiktor and I went all the same".

295
00:31:28,256 --> 00:31:30,550
[Man speaking German]

296
00:31:30,759 --> 00:31:32,594
No, wait.

297
00:31:33,762 --> 00:31:35,805
Out this way.

298
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,684
I would like to have more time...

299
00:31:41,144 --> 00:31:43,188
...a lot of time...

300
00:31:43,897 --> 00:31:46,024
...an eternity, really...

301
00:31:47,067 --> 00:31:48,276
...to talk with you.

302
00:31:49,819 --> 00:31:51,821
You are Kraków's intellectual elite.

303
00:31:52,030 --> 00:31:54,741
I'd like to discuss Plato with you.

304
00:31:55,784 --> 00:31:58,119
I'd like to talk about Rome.

305
00:31:59,037 --> 00:32:01,081
I studied in Rome.

306
00:32:01,915 --> 00:32:04,834
I would like to read Nietzsche and Goethe.

307
00:32:06,044 --> 00:32:07,462
But I don't have time.

308
00:32:07,671 --> 00:32:10,632
I don't have time.

309
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:12,425
You know my dream?

310
00:32:12,634 --> 00:32:18,056
To make Wawel
an island of civilisation and civility...

311
00:32:19,557 --> 00:32:21,810
...in the heart of Slavic barbarity.

312
00:32:22,018 --> 00:32:23,853
[All shout]

313
00:32:26,356 --> 00:32:28,983
But you Poles,

314
00:32:29,192 --> 00:32:31,027
especially you intellectuals...

315
00:32:32,195 --> 00:32:34,864
...are born conspirators.

316
00:32:36,533 --> 00:32:38,159
No.

317
00:32:38,368 --> 00:32:41,371
Poland will remain silent.

318
00:32:41,579 --> 00:32:42,789
Like a corpse.

319
00:32:44,207 --> 00:32:48,128
I have decided to close down
all schools and universities,

320
00:32:48,336 --> 00:32:50,880
newspapers and artistic associations.

321
00:32:51,089 --> 00:32:55,176
And I will destroy Polish libraries.

322
00:32:55,385 --> 00:32:58,138
What good are schools,
universities and libraries to you?

323
00:32:58,346 --> 00:33:01,933
You have no country. You have no culture.

324
00:33:04,227 --> 00:33:06,271
[Frank] Children who look Nordic

325
00:33:06,479 --> 00:33:10,191
will be taken from their families
and raised as Germans.

326
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:13,111
The others will work hard and eat little.

327
00:33:14,070 --> 00:33:16,364
And eventually they'll die.

328
00:33:16,573 --> 00:33:19,075
And Poland will die with them.

329
00:33:19,284 --> 00:33:21,286
Poland will never die!

330
00:33:21,494 --> 00:33:24,289
Poland will live! Long live Poland!

331
00:33:24,497 --> 00:33:28,793
If you try to escape,
you'll be doing me a favour.

332
00:33:29,002 --> 00:33:30,587
You'll be shot.

333
00:33:30,795 --> 00:33:33,298
- Let's get out of here.
- No.

334
00:33:33,506 --> 00:33:35,842
How many of you are there?

335
00:33:40,388 --> 00:33:43,058
187. Good.

336
00:33:44,934 --> 00:33:47,520
You won't be handcuffed,

337
00:33:47,729 --> 00:33:51,191
but you will go quietly to the trucks

338
00:33:51,399 --> 00:33:53,443
and get in one by one.

339
00:33:53,651 --> 00:33:56,488
[Wojcik] I see that your fists
are clenched, Mr Frank.

340
00:33:56,696 --> 00:34:00,825
You think that you hold life
clenched in those fists.

341
00:34:01,576 --> 00:34:03,912
Take a look again. They're empty.

342

It's a Nazi expression.

I understand and respect people
who resort to weapons.

580

The Nazis exterminate people
and want to exterminate our culture too.

581

They want to wipe out the Polish language.

582

to have a future is if we save our past.

has every right to do so.

One goes out, another lights up.

689
01:08:19,634 --> 01:08:22,762
If you feel you have to talk,

690
01:08:22,971 --> 01:08:26,307
I can keep this up for as long as you like.

691
01:08:28,852 --> 01:08:30,270
You...

692
01:08:30,478 --> 01:08:32,856
You haven't told me your name yet.

693
01:08:33,064 --> 01:08:34,524
Karol.

694
01:08:36,234 --> 01:08:39,696
I have to go now. I'm looking for my friend.

695
01:08:39,904 --> 01:08:44,325
- He's a priest. I need a mass said.
- A mass for the dead?

696
01:08:45,618 --> 01:08:49,998
We will win with love, not with guns.

697
01:08:50,206 --> 01:08:53,126
How can you say that
with Nazis outside the door?

698
01:08:53,335 --> 01:08:58,882
The Nazis will disappear
because evil will devour itself.

699
01:08:59,090 --> 01:09:01,217
But...

700
01:09:01,426 --> 01:09:04,095
But if love doesn't win out,

701
01:09:04,304 --> 01:09:08,767
the Nazis will just come back
under a different name.

702
01:09:08,975 --> 01:09:12,645
- Is that what you mean?
- Exactly.

703
01:09:22,781 --> 01:09:27,118
St John of the Cross. For you, a surprise.

704
01:09:27,327 --> 01:09:29,996
It will become your bedside reading.

705
01:09:33,458 --> 01:09:35,251
Thank you.

706
01:09:57,357 --> 01:10:00,485
[Karol] You're giving absolution to a Nazi?

707
01:10:01,903 --> 01:10:05,615
History makes good people
face terrible choices, too.

708
01:10:05,824 --> 01:10:11,579
They feel like the walking dead because
they've been forced to kill their souls first.

709
01:10:15,709 --> 01:10:18,545
I'm here for them more than I am for you.

710
01:10:22,590 --> 01:10:25,135
They killed Wiktor and Krystyna.

711
01:10:27,220 --> 01:10:29,180
I know.

712
01:10:31,516 --> 01:10:34,394
Don't go to their funerals.

713
01:10:34,602 --> 01:10:39,065
The Nazis are just waiting
for something like that to arrest all of you.

714
01:10:40,150 --> 01:10:43,153
I'll come join you to celebrate a secret mass.

715
01:10:43,361 --> 01:10:45,655
Tomasz...

716
01:10:45,864 --> 01:10:48,324
But where is the line?

717
01:10:48,533 --> 01:10:54,581
Where is the line that divides those who pay
too little from those who pay too much?

718
01:10:55,832 --> 01:10:58,418
And what side am I on?

719
01:11:00,337 --> 01:11:01,796
I don't know.

720
01:11:03,715 --> 01:11:07,177
You're on the side of those who have to hope.

721
01:11:10,180 --> 01:11:15,101
The theatre... My life's dream is all over.

722
01:11:15,310 --> 01:11:16,853
What do you mean?

723
01:11:17,062 --> 01:11:20,815
I can't see anything any more for all the pain.

724
01:11:21,024 --> 01:11:25,195
Everything's so... dark. So dark.

725
01:11:26,613 --> 01:11:30,367
The world is blind and deaf.

726
01:11:31,451 --> 01:11:34,287
Defending culture's not enough.

727
01:11:34,496 --> 01:11:38,541
There's always a gun,
but I'd never be able to kill anyone.

728
01:11:40,585 --> 01:11:42,420
I told you,

729
01:11:42,629 --> 01:11:45,757
you must never, ever lose hope.

730
01:11:45,965 --> 01:11:51,221
You must never lose
the marvellous meaning of life and love,

731
01:11:51,429 --> 01:11:56,017
despite everything evil men are capable of.

732
01:11:59,104 --> 01:12:01,272
{y:i}[Karol] To get to where you are not,

733
01:12:01,481 --> 01:12:04,317
"you have to pass through where you are not".

01:12:04,526 --> 01:12:08,655
{y:i}To reach the place of possessing all,
"desire to possess nothing".

735
01:12:08,863 --> 01:12:13,702
{y:i}To reach the place of being all,
"desire to be nothing".

736
01:12:22,836 --> 01:12:26,506
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord,
and may perpetual light...

737
01:12:26,715 --> 01:12:31,011
I want to find the same reasons
you have to believe and hope.

738
01:12:32,262 --> 01:12:35,223
I want to enter a monastery.

739
01:12:35,432 --> 01:12:39,352
Karol, in times like these,
people need priests with them,

740
01:12:39,561 --> 01:12:42,272
not shut up in some monastery.

741
01:12:42,480 --> 01:12:45,650
I've been thinking about what I'm giving up.

742
01:12:46,818 --> 01:12:50,321
I keep thinking about the choice,

743
01:12:50,530 --> 01:12:54,075
the meaning of the choice I want to make.

744
01:12:54,284 --> 01:12:58,288
And I wonder, is it because I want to hide?

745
01:12:59,748 --> 01:13:02,876
Or because I feel guilty for all the pain I see?

746
01:13:05,045 --> 01:13:08,381
Or is there something deeper?

747
01:13:11,718 --> 01:13:14,220
Is God calling me?

748
01:13:16,473 --> 01:13:18,892
John wrote in his Gospel that Jesus said,

749
01:13:19,100 --> 01:13:22,687
"You have not chosen me,
but I have chosen you."

750
01:13:24,230 --> 01:13:28,151
The door is open. It's up to you now.

751
01:13:42,082 --> 01:13:44,751
[Tomasz saying prayer in Latin]

752
01:13:47,545 --> 01:13:51,883
- "Per Christum, Dominum nostrum".
- [All] Amen.

753
01:13:54,719 --> 01:13:57,889
- "Requiescant in pace".
- [All] Amen.

754
01:13:59,516 --> 01:14:02,727
The loss of loved ones is always devastating.

755
01:14:04,813 --> 01:14:06,898
The ancients used to find consolation

756
01:14:07,107 --> 01:14:12,153
by saying that the gods called
their dearest back to themselves.

757
01:14:12,362 --> 01:14:18,576
But faith is not a consolation.
Faith gives meaning to life and death.

758
01:14:18,785 --> 01:14:22,497
Here's to your generous life,
Krystyna and Wiktor.

759
01:14:22,706 --> 01:14:25,667
Here's to your courageous deaths.

760
01:14:26,710 --> 01:14:29,713
They give meaning to the dreams...

761
01:14:32,090 --> 01:14:35,093
...that you won't be able
to tell us about any more.

762
01:14:36,011 --> 01:14:38,805
"[Karol] Faith is a dark night".

766
01:14:50,817 --> 01:14:51,901
Karol!

767
01:14:52,110 --> 01:14:53,319
Karol!

768
01:14:54,070 --> 01:14:55,488
The dynamite!

769
01:14:58,616 --> 01:15:00,285
Oh, good Christ.

770
01:15:02,287 --> 01:15:04,914
You're so stupid. You'd die for your books.

771
01:15:06,124 --> 01:15:10,754
- Are you all right?
- Yes. Books are worth dying for.

772
01:15:10,962 --> 01:15:14,341
You're a worker here.
Chisel that into your thick skull.

773
01:15:15,508 --> 01:15:18,386
Here. Put these on before you go blind.

774
01:15:18,595 --> 01:15:21,681
- No, you keep them.
- Do as you are told.

775
01:15:22,515 --> 01:15:27,354
We'll need men like you with good eyesight
when we start over again.

776
01:15:27,562 --> 01:15:29,272
Nowak...

777
01:15:33,360 --> 01:15:37,822
Dad, Mrs Gedrynska
made a nice supper for you.

778
01:15:38,031 --> 01:15:39,115
Dad?

779
01:15:48,583 --> 01:15:50,627
Dad?

780
01:16:42,679 --> 01:16:46,683
[Mourners sing softly]

781
01:17:33,855 --> 01:17:37,275
I remember sitting on your knees

782
01:17:37,484 --> 01:17:41,154
and you used to tell me stories
about our heroes.

783
01:17:45,283 --> 01:17:51,206
I liked hearing about the painter,
Adam Chmielowski,

784
01:17:51,414 --> 01:17:54,626
who lost his leg in the January Uprising.

785
01:17:57,170 --> 01:17:59,798
You told me

786
01:18:00,006 --> 01:18:03,051
that he gave up art

787
01:18:03,259 --> 01:18:06,012
because he realised that...

788
01:18:07,097 --> 01:18:10,975
...God was calling him to other things.

789
01:18:13,603 --> 01:18:17,190
So he went to live among the disinherited

790
01:18:17,399 --> 01:18:21,820
as someone who'd come
to serve those who suffer.

791
01:18:32,664 --> 01:18:35,000
You've left me all alone.

792
01:18:44,676 --> 01:18:47,512
You've left me all alone.

793
01:18:59,941 --> 01:19:01,401
[Hania] Karol.

794
01:19:03,737 --> 01:19:07,115
Have you been waiting for me
in the rain all this time?

795
01:19:07,323 --> 01:19:09,534
We're not made of sugar.

796
01:19:14,080 --> 01:19:16,833
- What?
- We're not made of sugar.

797
01:19:17,042 --> 01:19:21,338
Karol would say that to me
when I didn't want to play soccer in the rain.

798
01:19:22,464 --> 01:19:25,425
I know. I was always there watching you.

799
01:19:26,718 --> 01:19:32,807
Do you remember when we were rehearsing
"Romeo and Juliet" for the school play?

800
01:19:33,016 --> 01:19:35,018
Of course I do.

801
01:19:35,226 --> 01:19:37,687
You were Juliet, and you Romeo.

802
01:19:39,147 --> 01:19:43,568
- What else? The lead role.
- And I wanted him to be Mercutio.

803
01:19:43,777 --> 01:19:49,491
- Do you remember what you told me?
- "I'd rather be a priest."

804
01:19:49,699 --> 01:19:53,495
And I said, "But the priest is just a small role."

805
01:19:53,703 --> 01:19:59,334
And I answered, "I'm not talking
about the play. I'm talking about my life."

806
01:20:34,994 --> 01:20:37,956
Having seen the full horror of these times,

807
01:20:38,164 --> 01:20:42,460
everything has been pointing me
towards something good.

808
01:20:42,669 --> 01:20:44,838
The priesthood.

809
01:20:45,046 --> 01:20:47,716
For the sake of every single person's dignity

810
01:20:47,924 --> 01:20:52,721
and for the experience of knowing myself
through the knowledge of God,

811
01:20:52,929 --> 01:20:55,515
of living God from the inside.

812
01:20:58,018 --> 01:20:59,769
I want to become a priest.

813
01:21:01,271 --> 01:21:03,565
Out of the depths of this evil,

814
01:21:03,773 --> 01:21:06,067
we must bear witness to the fact

815
01:21:06,276 --> 01:21:10,572
that the divine meaning of life
is more important than life itself.

816
01:21:10,780 --> 01:21:13,366
That's why I'm here.

817
01:21:13,575 --> 01:21:17,912
The Nazis have closed down the seminary.
You're risking your life.

818
01:21:18,997 --> 01:21:23,460
So not even your own mother
is to know you'll be studying here.

819
01:21:23,668 --> 01:21:28,214
You'll continue your life as usual
but you'll study and meditate with us secretly

820
01:21:28,423 --> 01:21:32,052
every free moment you have during the day.

- We'll get him to a hospital.
- It's better you don't touch him. He's Polish.

Don't worry.

Come with me. Come along.

829
01:23:10,567 --> 01:23:12,902

- Jan.
- Welcome back.

832
01:23:21,661 --> 01:23:26,124
- Your book helped me to make a choice.
- What choice?

01:23:26,332 --> 01:23:30,337
The darkness... the light.

834
01:23:31,629 --> 01:23:37,052
You have to get better fast. Our
performances aren't the same without you.

835
01:23:37,260 --> 01:23:40,847
- [Tomasz] I know the officer who helped you.
- You know him?

836
01:23:41,056 --> 01:23:43,308
He's married with three children.

837
01:23:43,516 --> 01:23:45,685
Right now he's in a lot of danger.

838
01:23:45,894 --> 01:23:50,231
He's been given a command
that he has decided to refuse.

839

[Soldier] I swore to die for the Third Reich.

840
01:23:54,110 --> 01:23:57,614
I am proud to die for the real Germany.
